How Far Will You Let Your Fantasy Soar? Come to the next JBC Meetup on Jan 16

“Among
the tales of sorrow and of ruin that came down to us from the darkness of those
days there are yet some in which amid weeping there is joy and under the shadow
of death light that endures." - J.R.R. Tolkien...

Happy
new year!! We are very happy to be able to see y'all again in the beginning of
2016. This
time, we are going to open our mind and let our imagination run wild. Be
fascinated by those magnificent tales and beauties that lie beneath a dozen of
fantasy novels that could easily take our breath away, or merely end up as an
intellectual showcase on our bookshelves.

Expect
to hear reviews on books like "The Silmarillion"written by J.R.R.
Tolkien, one part of Naomi Novik's Temeraire series, "His Majesty's
Dragon", "The Republic of Thieves" written by Scott Lynch, The
Mistborn trilogy written by Brandon Sanderson, "Perjalanan Sunyi Bisma
Dewabrata (The Silent Journey of Bisma Dewabrata)" written by Pitoyo
Amrih, "Tales from Earthsea" written by Ursula K. Le Guin, one of six
series of "The Secrets of the Immortal" written by Nicholas Flamel,
and more (to be updated).

IMPORTANT NOTE: Since we have a number of books to be discussed this month, we'll keep the review short (3-5 minutes each). We have a limited quota of participants. Don't forget to bring a valid ID card (KTP/ KITAS/ driver's license) to obtain an access card into the building. We will prioritize people who have RSVPed on JBC Meetup page or Facebook group to come in until 11:15.
